05:56 PM zhanx: I have extras
06:26 PM Tom_itx: what are servo flags?
06:27 PM zhanx: flags like location flags for seeing their location
06:32 PM zhanx: need to reprint them 2% smaller or so, they slide a bit
07:09 PM rue_mohr: zhanx,
07:09 PM rue_mohr: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2034564
07:10 PM rue_mohr: let there be cable porn
07:27 PM zhanx: rue_mohr, I have a pile of the cable hold downs I made for trim nails now
07:28 PM zhanx: re printing the pile of servo flags for testing at 98% for a tighter fit
07:38 PM zhanx: i need to print some your cable things also
07:41 PM rue_mohr: heh
07:42 PM rue_mohr: you need 4 printers more than I do right now
07:42 PM rue_mohr: servo flags?
07:42 PM zhanx: I am just printing supplies to organize right now
07:42 PM zhanx: sand dunes for cars have flags to see location
07:42 PM zhanx: same thing as a servo flag for testing
07:42 PM rue_mohr: ah
07:43 PM rue_mohr: I think the tea is putting me out...

07:46 PM rue_mohr: just glue them and use the grub as a keeper
07:46 PM zhanx: only need to hold 8oz
07:46 PM rue_mohr: dont tighten it enough
07:46 PM rue_mohr: I know
07:46 PM rue_mohr: when your feeder starts underfeeding to the head, its cause the grub on the stepper is slipping
07:46 PM zhanx: i weighed out the tray and the parts
07:47 PM rue_mohr: enough force will casue it to warp/split
07:47 PM zhanx: I can epoxy them
07:47 PM rue_mohr: I fixed it on the 2:1
07:47 PM rue_mohr: with those nuts
07:47 PM rue_mohr: they compress the plastic instead
07:47 PM zhanx: if i could fine a mini servo it would be less
07:47 PM zhanx: fidn
07:48 PM zhanx: leaving it, typo is sticking to it
07:48 PM rue_mohr: I have auto correction anyhow
07:48 PM rue_mohr: if I cant successfully correct, I'll ask
07:49 PM zhanx: my mod on the part worked for the hardware i had on hand so that is a bonus
08:04 PM rue_mohr: ok, I put on the X carrage

10:08 PM zhanx: I have 9 now that i can drill and work (tight fit) on the servo's
10:09 PM zhanx: tomorrow i am going to spend another 2 hours sorting parts into the bins i got
10:09 PM zhanx: I figure a week of sorting and labeling 2 hours a day I am good
10:10 PM Tom_L: you should make the led cube
10:10 PM zhanx: I have like 5 pounds of leds

10:18 PM Tom_L: ok i think i got all the 3 squared combinations coded
10:18 PM Tom_L: all (most) possibilities of 3 variables
10:20 PM Tom_L: not all of them are legal combinations
10:21 PM Tom_L: can be 1 or 2 but not 1 and 2
10:21 PM Tom_L: but can be 1 and 3 or 2 and 3
10:21 PM Tom_L: or 3 alone
10:22 PM Tom_L: or 1 alone
10:22 PM Tom_L: or 2 alone
10:22 PM Tom_L: split to 3 files
10:22 PM Tom_L: depending on the outcome
10:22 PM zhanx: not 9?
10:22 PM Tom_L: no
10:23 PM Tom_L: print, text or call
10:23 PM Tom_L: print and text
10:23 PM zhanx: k
10:23 PM Tom_L: etc
10:23 PM Tom_L: call and text
10:23 PM Tom_L: text alone
10:23 PM Tom_L: call alone
10:23 PM Tom_L: print alone
10:23 PM Tom_L: etc
10:24 PM Tom_L: i had to remember the code from a good number of years ago
10:24 PM Tom_L: and change it
10:27 PM Tom_L: not too difficult to figure out just trying to fit it in with everything else
11:36 PM rue_mohr: how many legal combinations are there?
11:36 PM rue_mohr: 2^2?
11:36 PM rue_mohr: so 4 combinations?
11:37 PM rue_mohr: easy, use a LUT
